Episode 2: Unpacking an impulse with not.yr.boyfriend

In this episode, I talk through an impulse purchase with Mariana Aboim, Ghislain Amar, Sophie Bates, Larisa David, Clementine Edwards, and Parker Kay, and Niloufar Nematollahi before speaking to Odie, the person behind the Instagram account @not.ur.boyfriend who made the shirt in collaboration with @renaissance__man.

Odie gives context to origin story of the shirt, their practice in making memes, and their overarching practices in community defence, mental health support, and collective liberation. More about them below:

Notyrbf reluctantly calls themself an artist and lives in Minneapolis, MN. Their work is rooted in their personal growth through poverty, familial trauma/loss, relationships, and addiction/sobriety, and is framed by their focus on collective liberation.
